GENERAL INFORMATION Cranberry juice has been a long standing aid for urinary tract health, and much is known about the benefits of proanthocyanidins for urinary tract health. But St. Gabriel Organics’ Urinary Tract Health doesn’t just contain proanthocyanidins… Urinary Tract Health is a strategic blend of natural extracts designed to achieve a healthy urinary tract for dogs and cats. St. Gabriel Organics’ Urinary Tract Health contains more proanthocyanidin in one teaspoon than 4 fl. oz. of cranberry juice cocktail*. Ursolic acid was once considered the active component of cranberries, but now, researchers have realized that the concentration of ursolic acid in cranberries is too low to account for the urinary tract health benefits of cranberries, and that the actual benefit of cranberries lies in cranberry’s unique type-A proanthocyanidins. Furthermore, these proanthocyanidins are a carefully extracted oligomeric form of proanthocyanidins which become more concentrated in the urine, where it counts. However, ursolic acid, extracted from Loquot leaves (Eriobotrya japonica), is the perfect adjunct to the beneficial effect of cranberry’s type-A proanthocyanidin. What else is in St. Gabriel Organics’ Urinary tract Health? How about bromelain, berberine, and Phyllanthus amarus extract? In case you didn’t know, bromelain is an enzyme, extracted from pineapples. Bromelain’s synergistic qualities make it an indispensable component of this product. And of course, berberine! Besides having a very long history of use, berberine is simply too awesome to summarize. Berberine is essentially the active ingredient in Goldenseal, Oregon grape, and barberry (to name a few). Urinary health is strongly correlated with kidney well being, and it is believed that the rich supply of organic acids, tannins, saponins, alkaloids, enzymes, and the vast array phytochemicals found in Phyllanthus amarus are the reason that the common name for this plant is, STONEBREAKER. There is much evidence that this plant can be important for many aspects of urinary health and kidney function. *Calculation based on 231 mg of proanthocyanidins per liter ofcranberry juice cocktail.
